I have not seen these before, and have no information about the completeness of the group you posted.

Can I have your permission to feature them in my Standard Catalog Update column on my blog and in SCD? Perhaps we'll get reports from other collectors if there are any others to be found.

Hi Bob.

Absolutely! Let me know if you want any more scans.

As a background they originally came from the collection of a gentleman who worked at The Hartford Courant Newspaper as a typesetter.

Among hundreds of press photos were these cards. There were no other cards of any type in the collection. It's a leap but maybe the Newspaper issued them........I don't know.

It would be fun to see if there's any more out there.

Thanks.
